I knew he was a Democrat when I saw his party wasn't mentioned in the article. Political party, that is. News about his partying ARE in the article.

It's even better than that. Morrison was the Republican DA of Johnson County, until he switched parties in order to run for attorney general against his political enemy, incumbent AG Phill Kline, also a Republican. Morrison beat Kline for AG, but Kline wound up in Morrison's old job, Johnson County DA. How that happened is a long story, but the feud between the two has been very bitter and public. I noticed that in this story, Morrison is accusing Kline of outing the mistress and her EEOC complaint.

Does Morrison’s Linda Carter look anything like Lynda Carter?

Probably because Kline's campaign dredged up a harassment complaint made against Morrison, and which turned out to be bogus. Looks like they were just looking in the wrong place. I've heard that Morrison had ambitions for governor somewhere down the road. This may well put a stake through those ambitions.

He probably switched parties because he knew the Democrats would be “less judgemental” about his affair.

This whole Kline vendetta boils down, simply, as do a lot of issues, to abortion.

I know someone that is blindly, vehemently pro-abortion. She spat with disgust about Kline, and I asked her what he did to engender such hate, since he was just attempting to enforce the law.
“NO, he was interpreting the law”.
“How so?”
“I don’t know, he just was.”
